Shownotes Transcript

The Business Design Jam is back. In the third session, David Schmidt), a business design partner at United Peers), and I discuss four business design topics:

  • how misaligned incentives fundamentally hurt user experience across different industries and what we can learn from Lemonade (the insurance startup from USA),

  • why creating sustainable brands could be the next big wave in business innovation (we talked about Patagonia as an example here),

  • we discussed a question that very few designers and entrepreneurs ask themselves: “how big should my company be” (hint: growing is not always the best answer),

  • and we discussed what separates a successful corporate innovation from the ones that are likely to fail.
